Style Soul

A great, self-contained, soul music collective that never got their just due because of a spurious tax scam that was prevalent in the record industry in the early to mid-1970s - the group known as Spice, and their 1976 LP “Let There Be Spice,” remained in obscurity without members of the band even knowing that it was ever released until nearly 30 years after the fact. Now, thanks to the sharp ears of his internet savvy aging mother and subsequent interviews with Spice’s leader Richard Brown Jr. – the full story of who this almost-forgotten band was, and what happened to them and why, is finally revealed. Whatever transpired business-wise should not obscure the quality of the music that resulted in the recording of this album. The performances are impeccable, the musicianship is top-notch, and the original songs in retrospect, were way ahead of their time. As a special treat for rare soul music lovers, this long-lost LP has been newly remastered for this exclusive release and pressed on virgin black vinyl.
